CONTROLLED INSTALLATION AND START-UP
Delivery is not the same as production readiness.
New equipment can arrive on time yet fail to achieve output because foundations, utilities, interfaces, controls, product conditions, operator training or acceptance criteria were not coordinated. FFT Services helps manage readiness from pre-installation checks through trials and controlled handover.
The service can support customer-purchased machinery, imported equipment, line relocations, replacement assets and multi-supplier production systems.
CONNECTED ENGINEERING SUPPORT

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Before starting the assessment
Can you support equipment supplied by an overseas manufacturer?
Yes. FFT Services can coordinate local readiness and interfaces while working with the OEM’s installation and commissioning responsibilities.
What should be agreed before performance testing?
Product specification, raw material, packaging, operators, run duration, capacity, quality, waste, utilities and allowable exclusions should be defined before the test.
Can you assist after commissioning?
Yes. Ramp-up support, issue investigation, optimisation and follow-up performance verification can be included.
